Stop taking med!: You mean this has happened more than once? And you haven't talked to your prescribing doc about this? Or sought medical attention? Sildenafil (Viagra) was originally studied as a potential treatment for high blood pressure. However, it wasn't very effective in that role but it can still cause low blood pressure & even passing out especially when taken w/nitrates. Best to stop & discuss w/your doc
